The benefit of this is the Internet user sees only your ‘Public IP Address’ (your modem or router) and can not see your ‘Internal IP Address’ so they have no direct access to the device other than through the software they are using to access it. The porting guides the incoming signal to the correct device. Using ‘Port Forwarding’ allows a company to set up Internet access to a device on the LAN. Allows a company to safely set up a device on the Internal Network for access from the Internet. 100 or more computers using that router show up as 1 single address to the Internet (Many addresses to One address)ģ.
Since the router is the only connection to the Internet, it’s address is the only one visible to the Internet. This is where the term ‘Many to One’ comes from.
